The final of the first National Spelling Bee, organised by Department of Co-Curriculum Education and supported by the Centre for British Teacher’s (CfBT) Brunei, is set for today at the International Convention Centre.

The aim is to celebrate spelling ability amongst students and raise the profile of spelling and vocabulary nationwide.

Over 700 children in over six clusters took part in the preliminary round in all three districts.
